    Lanny, I bet you had one of the neatest gardens in the nhood. What did you use to deal with slugs? or did you just wash them down with some Korean Beer?

    slugs don't like to travel across crushed eggshells....hurts their belly...I use that and slug bait to deal with them...any rough surface that is uncomfortable for them should help out...

    I love that movie...both versions and the book....good catch! I'm not cloning arborvitae trees with goats though! Goats need to be pure to bring a good price...but you know that!

    I was gonna invite @THE HCP to come workout with me. Then, I realized, this whole Mrs. HCP thing. I mean, they'd be a long ways way from each other.

    So, nevermind.

    I hate slugs with a passion and always have. My aunt told me that when I was a tiny tot I came into her house holding a slug in my hand which I then squished between my fingers and ate immediately. It was probably because of some dare from my cousin who was my age. When she told me that story I almost had to vomit. I can't think of anything more disgusting.
    Then when I was about 12 my best friend came over and we slept in the back yard in our sleeping bags. In the morning I discovered that a slug had crawled in my sleeping bag with me. Those two incidents have given me a life long feeling of total disgust at slugs. Also. slugs ate our dahlias, daffodils, lettuce and beet greens. I can't recall what else they ate in our vegetable garden. Anyhow, I hate slugs with a passion. I'm sure I used slug bait and I think I used beer traps, also.

    I've only seen two, now that you remind me. The one I was thinking of originally starred Burt Lancaster.
